"I (Harris became convinced years ago, when I was studying Sanskrit in
my historical linguistics doctorate program, that the Greek myths had
little to do with the spirituality of the Indic myths, even when there
were thematic and linguistic parallels. (Campbell travelled a similar
route, but went wrong in the direction of a popular and fashionable
spiritualism.) I have discussed this mismatch with Indian scholars and
find they have the same misgivings about Greek mythology."
